Ladurée is a Parisian pastry house that has several branches in upmarket locations across France. In 1862, Louis Ernest Ladurée, a miller, founded a tea room and pastry shop in rue Royale, Paris.

It was a time when women were gaining their independence and when people were flocking to Paris for the World Fair. The store became a hit and gained a reputation for decadent desserts. Great for macarons and other pastry delights.

Opening hours: 9.30am to 6.30pm. Daily.

Marcel et Cavazza

Many people think this little pârisserie does a better Tarte Tropézienne than the original creator La Tarte Trapézienne, round the corner. It’s a great little bakery, perfect for picking up something for a picnic on the beach.
